As cool as it is and it is cool. Its to much, when we think of a ridicoulous super car we think of something kind of like that. I think its to stereotypical of a super car design. Cool concept tho but not my cup of tea.

concepts are that, concepts, they are never intended to go into production. It's the motor industries equivalent of a fashion show to show of their skills and talents. To prove how great they are technologically without production restrictions.

basically what the engineers can come up with without any restrictions.

With production cars you have financials, designers, interior designers, usability engineers and everyone else who gets their paws in and the end product is a compromise between all parties involved. Biggest compromise factor is pricepoint. Even people who buy lambos have budgets and the car has to meet a certain pricepoint, that pricepoint will hugely affect design and production choices.

This was my reaction. It's far too busy. Too many lines that don't have any sort of cohesion. It's like they looked at a B-117 and some 3 year old's drawing of a batmobile and decided to take parts of one and parts of the other without trying to blend them into one single design. Plus it's got to be impossible to see out of that thing.

Personally Im the opposite. I thought the Veneno was over stylized, and trying way to hard to appear "cool." I like this design more because of how vulgar and rude it is. It looks like an eagle that is going to scream in your ear, peck your eyes out, and eat your brain for breakfast. Just get rid of the orange windshield and I would love it.

All you people are so incredibly stupid. I just can't wrap my mind around it. Stop calling the Veneno "ugly" and "wannabe cool". It's a freaking sub-concept car based on what those certain type of le-mans race-cars look like. It's exactly what it is supposed to be when you know what they wanted to achieve. Not trying to look "cool"

Lamborghini is known for making insane, crazy supercars. Not grocery-getting SUVs. They arent even trying to make a large profit for volkswagen. In fact, I think I read somewhere that each Aventador sold returns negative profit. They are just making crazy cars to take peoples breath away. I personally think that if they end, it will be because they try to become 'normal.'

Lamborghini doesn't "need" profits though, they basically run off of the pooled profits of Volkswagen AG. They sell so few cars anyway (compared to the rest of the group) that an SUV wouldn't really change the way they operate.

A lot of the super high end cars act as test beds for future technology that (if it ends up being any good) eventually finds it's way into consumer-grade cars. Things like dual-clutch transmissions, which were once the domain of race cars and high-end supercars, are now (slowly) making their way into normal cars, since they offer better performance and greater fuel economy over a traditional automatic. By selling absolutely bonkers vehicles to the super-rich, they can help cover some of the cost of R&D on that stuff without waiting a decade or more for it to be ready for the mainstream (at which point, they start making money).

Lamborghini use to make tractors and they have made SUVs in the past. So I'm pretty sure the SUV fits within the name and also will provide them with more capital to build supercars just like how Porsche has done.

yes, the Murcielago and Gallardo are perfect in my mind. But these concepts and 1 offs all of a sudden are just horrid. They're trying way too hard to be Radical and different it's starting to get annoying. The last good limited car they made was the Reventon. Because it the whole stealth fighter look. not the autistic kid with a spaceship obsession look.

Too far. It's not something to use as an analogy in this discussion. Lamborghini has always been round to make insane cars, not conservatively-styled ones. The Countach made everyone who saw it say "WOW" and the Murcielago just was "meh".

Yes i do agree, Countach was radical for the time but just kept evolving into an uglier fatter slug. The '73 was beautiful. Clean lines, slight openings for air and such. But no "LOOK AT ME" wings and fenders and flares. And yes, Lambo does need to maintain the moderately radical look, and the aventador fills that roll perfectly, however the recent one-offs and concepts like the Veneno just are hideous.

This car is vulgar, and I like that. Lamborghini has historically been the car you have on a poster up on your wall as a kid. This car I think exemplifies that absurd design and foreword thinking that Lamborghini seems to have. It reminds me in many ways of the countach- people had the same reaction to its design that people seem to be having here.

An they please make an updated muira? Like seriously that car ,updated, would be an absolutely beautiful car and it would turn heads anywhere you go. Not in the HOLY SHIT BATMAN IT'S BATMAN way. But damn that's a beautiful car way

Meh..lambo is getting too "out there" in their designs in my opinion. The Aventador was like borderline getting there, but still a beautifully designed car. Then they went and made the veneno, which is just an entirely different story. I would imagine these designs are done based on aerodynamics but god damn their cars are getting ugly.

why do gas guzzlers all use the name "eco" in. it's a completely meaningless, overused term right now.

I was watching youtube and there was a car named the "ecojet" basically a jet engine car that Idles at 60mph and needs to be braked to allow it to go slower. It cannot idle like cars. So as you can imagine, it's very uneconomical. But it's called a "ecojet".

Not anytime soon is all I can say. From a market standpoint, Lamborghini made a wise desk job waiting until 2017 for the Urus... Vehicles will have caught up to the futuristic look. This doesn't look like anything that Lamborghini would actually follow through with to say the least.

i really do fear for the future of the company, coming out with the veneno and this. it's taking the idea of "extreme design" to the absolute ludicrous and ugly. it makes me sad to think that the company won't have great cars like any of the past lamborghinis anymore if they keep going in this direction.

Think of the kind of person that buys a lamborghini. You could buy an aventador or gallardo and while yes, your car sticks out in a crowd, it still retains a bit of elegance. It's like a bit of scruff and 5 o'clock shadow. This and the Veneno, though, are way more about getting attention. They're like weaving your moustache and then tying the ends into a bow. And the Egotist has a gold chain interleaved in there, too.

i'm a huge lamborghini fan haha, i agree with everything you've said... but to me it feels like that's ALL they're trying to do - make designs that just yell out "LOOK AT ME!" and nothing else. which is sad, because all the cars prior to the veneno had an element of subtle beauty which was unique to each model. however the new direction of the company, while extreme and still really cool (i liked the ecosta) seems to be losing that aspect of beauty that comes inherently to each lamborghini. this is just my opinion
